Bristol Rovers were also on the pitch at Wycombe the week before they were relegated by Mansfield, having thought they were safe. The chances of them actually going down on the day were remote, they had to lose at home and two other teams had to win. The weirdest things happen in football.

Blackpool's relegation back in the early 80's when the last round of fixtures were not played at the same time takes some beating. In the old second division with 2 points for a win they had slid from about 8th at the start of April to 3 places above relegation zone having played their last game.

On the last day when they had no game but there was only one set of results out of a possible combination of 27 that would see them relegated and of course it happened. they went down on 37 and the seven teams above finished on 38.

How does that work out? If we lose, we are down. If they lose, they are not down. Still 3 points ahead of us. Even a draw will probably do them. So how are they under more pressure?
